Daily fluctuations of nucleoli in neurosecretory cells of the rat supraoptic nucleus. An ultrastructural and stereological study.

Abstract:

:Daily fluctuations of nucleoli and nucleolar fibrillar centres in neurosecretory cells from the supraoptic nucleus (SON) were investigated in rats artificially synchronized for 3 weeks to a set 12 h light/12 h dark cycle with free access to food and water. Group of 3 animals were sacrificed by intracardiac perfusion every 4 h for a 24-h period and every 2 h between 22.00 h and 07.00 h. The SON of each animal was removed, and the mean nucleolar volume and the mean volume of the nucleolar fibrillar centres were estimated by a stereological analysis. The quantitative data showed that the fluctuations in the nucleolar volume of SON neurons depend on the time of sacrifice. A peak value was found in animals sacrificed at 03.00 h which was 1.5 times the value found in animals sacrificed at 19.00 h. The volume of fibrillar centres underwent small, but not significant changes over the 24-h period. None of the large fibrillary centres that can be observed in the superior cervical ganglion were found in the SON. Our results demonstrate that in these neurons the size of the nucleolus under-goes daily fluctuations. These results are discussed in the light of previous studies conducted at our laboratory on the circadian rhythm of nucleolar volume and of nucleolar components in neurons of the superior cervical ganglion.
